The Mortimer in Maine.

Hon. Joseph Williamson of Belfast Me.
lectured in that city recently on "Pre- His
torc Maine" He thought it had been es-
tsblished that Left Ericsson, the adventurous
Northman. visited Labrador. Novia Scotia
and the New England coasts in the year 1904
He said there was an abundance of evidence
to show that Maine WAS visited by people
long before the North American Indians
One hundred and fifty years ago, while dig
ging at Watcrville. blacksmith's forge was
unearthed, and at the head of Merrymeetng
bay metallic hearths were found. One ac-
count says that a voyage was made from what
is now known to be Nova Scotia westward
two days, when an island was reached. and
subsequently river and large lake. The
speaker said that Monhegan. doubtless. was
the island referred to, and the river was the
kennebec. The lake corresponds to Merry
meeting bay. which accounts for the hearths
found there. Similar articles have been I'M
earthed in the northern countries Of Europe
Copper and other metals have been exhumed,
which antedate the Indian. In regard to the
climate. the speaker said il might appear mild
to the Mortimer in comparison to their own
country, or the climate might have changed
since that time. Mr.. Williamson alluded TO
the old causeway at Stinson' point Dear Isle.
and said there was also evidence of q pre-
historic road in Northport.

Diplomatic Rumors.

A London cabegram to the New York
Times reports that it is believed in English
circles that at tire last Cabinet meeting
dispatches were read from Chamberlain to
the effect that nothing will be done on az
count Of the obstinacy of Sir Charles
Topper This rumor, II true, indicates
that Mr.. Chamberlain and Minister West
see the reasonableness Of the American
claim for commercial privileges, but that
Sir Charles Upper Is stubbornly main
tanning the clustering attitude assumed
by Canada Immediately on the abrogation
Of the fishery clause Of the Treaty of
Washington. There is a degree of pro-
liability in this rumOr, and those of similar
import But it is hardly presumable that
the British representatives are so reason
able "a this account asserts, unless they
are strongly in the hopes Of compensation
in some other directions. We think they
know American opinion too well to
believe that Cleveland's Free Trade
promises will be made good by Congress
If the English manufacturers could but
gain control OF the markets of the L nited
States through the doors which Cleveland
and his Secretary Fairchild have proposed
to open so broadly. Chamberlain and his
home hackers might be ready enough to
snub the Canadians. But the British Min
lister and Commissioner can be counted on
not to do business on guesses and promises.
They know too well that the President,
Carlisle, Watterson and their supporters
cannot deliver the goods.

II is singular complaint that is now made
by the head of the American Government
He points out BY the operation of the present
fiscal system, the gross revenue has been in
creased to an extent that threatens the pros
perity Of the country by Withdrawing enor-
nous sums from the ordinary circulation
that ought to be in the pockets of the COM
munity. II is not the foreigner alone who
pays for the blessings of protection. The
President of the United States is not salts
fed with system that leads TO such results
and he recommends revision of. the tariff.
with view of allowing those raw materials
that now pay heavy duty, to enter Ameri-
can ports free. This is great step toward
free trade, and though Mr.. Cleveland stu
diousiv avoids committing himself to the
name, there is Enthusiastically a movement in
the direction that cannot fail to excite the
iiveliest alarm among that powerful combi-
nation of moneyed men. who, having made
their fortunes by protection, naturally cling
to il with the tenacity Of all monopolists. His
message will no doubt provoke an immense
amount of personal hostility on the part OF
many who have hitherto been favorable to
him but there is some reason for believing
that free trade principles have of late been
making headway among the farmers OF the
United States.

follows:
''In order successfully to compete with
foreign countries we must have not only free
raw materials such as they have, but chdp
labor such as they also have. Give us free
raw materials and cheap labor and we can
meet the world in the manufacture of engine

THE RESPONSE
OF the wooI-orowers OF Pennsylvania
to the Presidents Free Trade Manifesto.

The wool-growers and farmers Of the
keystone State we're in convention two
DAYS last week In New Castle, and at the
close passed the following resolution.
Reselred, That we unqualifedly condemn
a. unstatesmanlike, uncailed for and unfair
that part of the recent message of President
Cleveland practically recommending the
placing Of wool on the free list. If this
expression, which goes before the world as
our official deliveranee of the Executive De-
partment Of our Government, is to be taken
a. manly ayovai Of candid opinion, then
the President has forfeited our confidence
in his judgment and bis ability TO guide
Alright the destinies Of this great Nation; il
on the other hand it is merely the insincere
manifesto Of man catering tovhe free trade
element in this country and seeking admira-
ton abroad, that he has proved lamentably
recreant TO the trust reposed in him. With
out presuming to say which of the two in
corporations Of this assault on wool /, to be
taken as the true one, and il must be one of
them, we declare that in either event he
merits the Indignation which his message has
excited.
The,Pennsylvania farmers have learned
good deal since they were the victims OF
the Polk and Dallas cheat of 1914. Cleve-
land, Carlisle and their like had better
keep out OF the way Of this sturdy
yeomanry.

The Boston Journal says IA sharply "a
truthfully that the "rcbuke which his
superors have administered to Internal
Revenue Collector Page of Portsmouth is
just as overwhelming As it is deserved,
and it is not likely that that official will try
to obstruct or browbeat any more clergy
men or officers of the law who may wish
to examine the government books for the
names and locations of Illegal liquor
sellers in Maine. Every one of the points
which were raised have been decided
against the Collector by Commissioner
Miller, and Mr.. Page must hereafter keep
his list OF liquor tax payers open to public
inspection, and make the names and adj
dresses complete and specific" The Wash

insoence as this man Page has attempted

the important reforms indicated are carried
out, great change will occur in the supply

imply a high range of prices for a large mass
of commodi les. Again the natural re-
suit of these duties upon our exports is that
they tend to fall in price-their price must
be lowered that they may creep through the
protective barriers. 1t was acknowledged in
the report of the Trade Commission that the
fall in prices here was partly due to protcc
tive duties abroad.
